A Bit About Me

I've been married to My Sweet Mr. for 30 years and we have three "twenty-something" adult children. I have always enjoyed creating various handcrafts and set up a table a time or two at local craft fairs. I have decorated cakes professionally and, for several years, owned and operated a small, four room antiques store, now closed.
I enjoy painting on canvas, but continue to "treasure hunt" garage sales, flea markets, estate sales, attics, basements and barns for vintage items and pieces that I can repaint, reupholster and repurpose. My decorating taste is more traditional with a victorian influence but I adore the shabby romantic style. I hope you'll stop back often. I'll be sharing recipes, helpful hints and how-tos, thrifty finds and my latest crafty projects.
Warm Hugs,
BettyJean

My sweet kitty "Sugar" 1997 - 2015

Our shy little girl came to us about 18 years ago. Most probably abused as a young kitten she startled easily and hid when we had guests.

Remembering Millie, "our baby"

CLICK ON THE PHOTO and listen as Peter Himmelman sings the CUTEST DACHSHUND SONG EVER! The photo is of our, very petite, miniature black & tan dachshund. She is named "Millenia" because she was born in 2000, the year of the new millenium. At the age of 14 1/2 she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. I've named my Etsy Shop in her honor. We love you and miss you Millie!
